Chapter 407
Ryan had been keeping an eye on Spencer, but the man seemed to be miles away in his own head. Giving him a nudge, Ryan said. “Keep your head in the game up here, and Brielle’s job will be yours before you know it.”
Spencer didn’t respond. He just nodded. He wasn’t part of the upper echelon at Dorsey International anymore; he had no business attending meetings. Seeing Brielle so smug and successful only twisted the knife deeper for him.
Everything Brielle has now, she took from him- the prestige, the social standing, and even the man she’s associated with. Isn’t it only because she knew him, a member of the Dorsey family. that she found herself in the arms of Max? Just thinking about it made his blood boil.
As soon as Ryan left, William clapped Spencer on the shoulder. “Chin up, Spencer. At the end of the day, this is all on Brielle.”
Spencer remained silent, but his hand, hanging by his side, clenched into a fist, throbbing with pain.
William noted the look on Spencer’s face and allowed a crooked smile to form. “Taking complete control of someone is easy, especially someone like Brielle. Crush her career. alienate her friends, break her spirit, and she’ll see your worth when she’s lost everything. You can’t be soft with women, Spencer. Brielle has too much right now, and you’re just an option to her. But when she hits rock bottom, she’ll realize how precious you are.”
William was a master at manipulating emotions. Seeing the longing in Spencer’s eyes, William gave his advice from the perspective of an elder, but every word was laced with the temptation to lead Spencer astray.
Spencer, however, was blind to this. He felt every word was gospel truth. Brielle was too arrogant. Only by breaking her, piece by piece, would she give him a second glance.
Spencer lost all restraint as he remembered his sleepless nights while she reveled with Max. Why should he suffer alone? If misery were the game, then they would all play.
Sensing Spencer’s resolve, William patted his shoulder meaningfully and then entered the boardroom.
The meeting lasted two hours, and Max was absent. Brielle knew Max was a busy man and didn’t bother to track his every move.
When it ended, she grabbed her documents and was about to leave when she heard William call out. “Brielle.”
She frowned slightly but still managed a smile as she turned. “Mr. William, what can I do for you?”
William approached her slowly. “I heard about your triumph at the casino last night.
Congratulations.”

Chapter 407
Brielle knew she couldn’t keep it a secret; the high society was a small world, and by now, her name was surely making the rounds.
“You’ve surprised me.” William’s voice was soft, almost intimate, as he leaned in. “Being with Max without any real commitment, don’t you feel undervalued? You know, my son is about Max’s age. If you were with him-”
She cut him off mid–sentence. “Mr. William, is this about the ten billion? I’d think you’re not that hard up for cash.”
This stung William, his usually calm and collected facade cracking as he pressed his lips together, staring coldly at Brielle.
